Going beyond the message of Lean In and The Confidence Code, Gannett's Chief Content Officer contends that to achieve parity in the office, women don't have to changeâ??men doâ??and in this inclusive and realistic audio handbook, offers solutions to help professionals solve gender gap issues and achieve parity at work.

Companies with more women in senior leadership perform better by virtually every financial measure, and women employees help boost creativity and can temper risky behaviorâ??such as the financial gambles behind the 2008 economic collapse. Yet in the United States, ninety-five percent of Fortune 500 chief executives are men, and women hold only seventeen percent of seats on corporate boards. More men are reaching across the gender divide, genuinely trying to reinvent the culture and transform the way we work together. Despite these good intentions, fumbles, missteps, frustration, and misunderstanding continue to inflict real and lasting damage on women's careers.

What can the Enron scandal teach us about the way men and women communicate professionally? How does brain circuitry help explain men's fear of women's emotions at work? Why did Kimberly Clark blindly have an all-male team of executives in charge of their Kotex tampon line? In That's What She Said, veteran media executive Joanne Lipman raises these intriguing questions and more to find workable solutions that individual managers, organizations, and policy makers can employ to make work more equitable and rewarding for all professionals.

Filled with illuminating anecdotes, data from the most recent relevant studies, and stories from Lipman's own journey to the top of a male-dominated industry, That's What She Said is about success that persuasively shows why empowering women as true equals is an essential goal for us allâ??and offers a roadmap for getting… (más)

This book about the strides and shortcomings in equality been men and women is thoughtful and focused on solutions. The author repeatedly points out what works - I particularly thought the sections on diversity programs was very interesting - and how men need to be brought into the conversation about women's equality. This book doesn't have all the answers, but it may point the way towards more practical solutions that works focused on theory. ( )

Interesting and certainly true of my corporate experience. Only got about 1/2 through before I was completed aggravated by the status of women in the workplace and could not finish

I like this book. I would probably recommend it as a primer on the research and perspective on the topic of women and work, though I have some quibbles, it's generally a good recap of the studies and approaches.

I was hoping to get more about "what men need to know" and how to engage men in ways that don't make them feel "guilty" or "beaten by a 2X4". I didn't feel there was much explicit advice on that front, besides 'the goals of diversity align with the goals of existing metrics of profit and success'. It did discuss how we've seen backlash on trainings and sometimes diversity training can be counterproductive. But, we don't really know the answer.

All in all, an easy read, comprehensive on a number of topics, largely based on research. The interpretation of the research is generally good and in line with the data. The major issue I have is with the chapter on crying. That chapter just really didn't seem helpful and I'm not sure those studies are very good.

I listened to the audiobook during my commute. It was a good alternative, since I'm not trying to look up the references. I've already read most of them.... except that one study at Carnegie Mellon on job ads. I know job ads are profiling people based on age, but sex too seemed crazy. But, so it is. ( )
